- Biodegradability - at least 90% of material must biodegrade (into carbon dioxide, water and biomass) within six months.

Compostable vest carrier bag storage instructions
To maintain the quality of these vest carrier bags, please store them in a cool, dry place in their original packaging, away from sources of heat or direct sunlight and use them within 12 months.
Secondary use and end of life options
After being used as a carrier bag, these bags can be reused as a bin liner for an organic waste bin or kitchen caddy. They can then be disposed of, along with their contents, in your food waste collection as they are designed to break down in industrial composting within 12 weeks.
They are also suitable for home composting, although timescales will vary depending on the disposal environment and will likely take longer than 12 weeks. They are not suitable for regular (non-organic) recycling.
